Finding Lost YouTube Market icon?

After rooting and applying the Market, I decided to clean up a few "not required" Running services.
I must have blown out a Google hook that supplied the YouTube icon that calls sysdev.
The button is still there with label but the ICON is blank.

Any idea how I could get this Icon back without re-installing the Market again?
Not a show stopper, just an annoyance.

Thanks

I believe you can download the Google Marketplace in a zip and then just replace the Youtube .apk.

The YouTube.apk is still on the tablet and it still does call sysdev so I think when I deleted one of those Google apps in Running services, it was that app that contained the icon.
I'll try and put a few of the ones I deleted back and see if the icon re-appears.

I know that when i got rid of "Phone.apk" I had some serious problems with the Youtube app and playing videos period. Even when trying to play videos through "sysdev" it wouldn't work. Did you do anything to the "Phone.apk"?

not this time. I did not remove that phone.apk or the telephonyprovider.apk as I had done before.

Have you tried reinstalling the Youtube app? Or did you already figure out your problem?

Alright, I would recommend extracting the Youtube apk from the Marketplace zip and just installing it on your device through the terminal.
